Advice on being in multiple boards
I am currently on the OT list for multiple boards. I am not exactly sure where I want to move in the next couple of years, but my goal is to get permanent asap so that I can settle down somewhere.
The board that I’ve been wanting permanent in because it’s in my hometown which is where I currently live, seems like it’s going to take a very long time. In some of the other boards I’m in, I’ve had a lot more luck with getting interviews and it seems like there’s more opportunity.
I’m worried about taking LTOs in other boards this year though, because that means I may be off the list next year for the board where I currently live if I don’t get in my supply days. This is the board I’ve supplied the most in so far, and I’ve been making connections. I worry that I may be jumping the gun too soon and could miss some opportunities for upcoming LTOs and eventual permanent. Though, if an opportunity arises in another board, I don’t want to burn bridges there either. Recently, a VP in a nearby board that I had interviewed with for a contract informed me that an LTO would be opening soon and that I should apply, and I don’t want them to think I’m not interested in working for them if I don’t.
How do you decide which board to stick with?
